The Home Dramatic.

On Wednesday evening the Home
dramatic Company finished a two
nights engagement with the slimmest
bouse that ever greeted any of their
nerformances. This was probably caused
bv the public being led to expect some
thing that they did not receive, and one
night was enough for them. Had the
company put on one Of their own plays
and depended upon their unaided eff
forts. used only their own names IN ad-
vertising, instead OF permitting them
selves to be announced as supporting
professional" we believe the public
would have supported them; but when
Il comes to.paying for aiprofesHonai per.
formance, Ogdenites have 8 habit OF
wanting what they are promised. we
think, however. that our home troupe
have not lost all their reputation ana II

IN establish the fact that they can fur-
nisb a good evenings entertainment,
and one that is well worth paying to see.

PERSONAL,

Gov. Ormsbee and Hon. Wheelock G..
Veazey of Rutland were on Monday ad-
mitted to practice before the United
States supreme court.
DIR. NJ. Goldsmith, the distinguished
Rutland physician, is in failing health
and cannot long survive, his doctors say.
This item is going the rounds of the
papers Probably the oldest person in
the world who is taking the Chautauqua
literary course is Mrs. Betsey Needham
of Bristol, Addison county. She is now
92 years of age, and expects to receive
her diploma in the four years course in
1899. She appears to feel the weight of
years lightly and is in better health than
most people at 60. She lives alone, and
has for years performed her own house
hold duties, including making her own
clothing. She attends the Methodist
church, of which she is member. With
great regularity she has begun the pres

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1885,
THE CATTLE COMMISSION.

The cattle commissioners for Vermont
cannot be said to be very prompt in the
discharge of their duty when it requires
three weeks after having discovered that
there was no pleuro-pneumoniai in Benson
and Orwell to issue an order raising the
quarantine on those two towns. .
The intelligent and practical farmers of
Vermont did not expect on the appoint
ment of hotel keeper and sheep deal
er to the positions of cattle commission
ers that they would display very much
knowledge regarding cattle. but they did
think they had sufficient common sense,
or if YOU will, horse sense, to use the SUI
perior knowledge of Others Fair Haven
Era,
The Era has probably been imposed
upon by some one who thinks he has a
grievance against the cattle commission
ers. 1t certainly is misinformed. Mr..
Bissell, the ''sheep-dealer,' is also gen.
eral farmer and owner of blooded cattle
as well as sheep. Mr.. Drew is not and
never was hotel-keeper. He has long
been cattle dealer and was for years
sheriff of Chttenden county. If our in
formation about the matter is correct,
and we have every reason to think 1t so,
the commission showed by its acts that
it was chosen wisely. At any rate it is
too early vet to denounce them.

MoNoPoLlEs AND PROTECTION.

The Iron and Steel Bulletin has some
thing to say about monopolies as follows
We know of one monopoly which has
been created and is now maintained by
American tariff legislation. but that legis-
lation was not established as part of
our protective policy, nor is the monopoly
referred to to be found in the United
States The monopoly we have in mind
is the manufacture of tin plates for sale
in the United States, and it is to be found
i'm Great Britain. 1t is maintained by the
persistent refusal. of an American Con-
gress to impose protective duty which
would enable us to make our own tin
plates, which. as everybody knows, are
almost entirely composed of iron or steel.
As result of this refusal all our tin
plates are made in Great Britain, for
which we annually pay to that country
about twenty million dollars.
1t is favorte argument of the free
traders that protection fosters monopo-
lies. Perhaps it does, occasionally, but
here is clear case of monopoly that
lives upon nOn-protective policy as to
a certain article. And the worst of it is
that it is foreign monopoly, which takes
out of this country an immense sum ev-
ery year in hard coin or its equivalent
Monopolies at home may be bad, but for
eign ones are infinitely worse; so the lit.
tie weight this argument ever had is
shown to be on the wrong side of the
scale for the free traders.

of the decoration of the Legion of Honor.
The cabinet has been compelled to re-
sign and the President, too. may be
obliged to go.
The situation in Germany is bad so far
as rulers are concerned. The emperor
is very old and may die almost any day,
the crown prince has cancer in the
throat and Prince William, son of the
crown prince and the next in succession,
is an invalid and may not long survive
his father and the emperor.
1t appears from the report of the State
inspector of finance, which has just come
to hand. that on the 30th of June last
there were 1876. more depositors in the
savings banks than the previous year
and that the deposits in these institutions
had increased 81, ,333, ,0S7 during the year.
So it seems that all the loose money in
the State doesn't go West.
Journalistic courtesies fill the air at
Montpelier, where one agricultural organ
hints its disapproval of the agricultural
editor of an esteemed contemporary in
this gentle fashion: "Tinkham wallows
on his abdomen before the railroad rings,
and all other aristocracies, IN manner
that should be highly pleasing to his
masters, on the paper and elsewhere.
Great is the power of the r. r. pass :
and of the almighty quarter of a dollar!'
There will be strong fight at Wash
ington this winter on the part of the
wool-growers for the purpose of retain
ing the present tariff on wool and wool
ems. The following notice, signed by Col
umbus Delano, president, and Albert
Chapman, secretary of the National
Wool Growers association, was sent out
by Mr.. Chapman the other day: "The
presidents of the State wool growers as
socations, W ho are eX-officio vice presi-
dents of the national association, are
earnestly requested to be present and see
that their several associations are fully
represented at the meeting of officers of
the National Wool Growers association
at Washington the first Monday of De-
cember next"

LITERARY NOTES.

A posthumous essay entitled SIN Dick

Scribner's, by Edwin Percy Whipple, the
late critic and lecturer, who was one of
the most ardent admirers of the genius of
Charles Dickens.
The Pansy is going on as heretofore, a
monthly magazine made up of weekly
parts: the first part containing Pansy's
Golden Text and other stories: the
second part Pansy's own and other
stories the third part stories of what is
going on in America; the fourth part
stories of life abroad; the fifth of mis-
sionary work. This weekly arrangement
adapts it to Sunday school use, the
weekly parts being given out separately.
1t is better than any Sunday school
paper indeed it is the Sunday school
paper. A sample copy can be got by
sending five cents to the publishers, D..

Editor Murat Halstead of the Cincin-
natl Commercial-Gazette has written an
essay in which he tabulates the white
and cOlored vote in the Southern States
by congressional districts and by States,
in support of the proposition that the
Democratic party in the South has
nullified the war amendments to the
constitution. This essay is contributed
to the Forum for December, which will
also contain history of the w. c. Il. T..
by Miss willard, the national president,
and other important papers.
The Christmas issue of Harper's Mag
azine has for several years past been
notably fine, but the December number
this year surpasses all previous efforts on
the part of the publishers. Almost every
article is illustrated. Every article and
story is complete in itself and the
Christmas idea predominates throughout.
A new and attractive feature is a cOlOred
plate of American gems, illustrating an

ing fac-simile in color and size of the
most illustrious gems found in this
country-a group of brilliant colOrs re-
quiring twenty separate printings. Other
articles are; "Old Garden Flowers y

CURRENT OPINION.

difficult to forgive Grover Cleveland for
his letter urging the election of John II.

The men who prefer bombs to ballots in
a country of universal suffrage are so

1t can be asserted. without the slightest
fear of successful contradiction, that the
prohibitory enactments of the various
States are quite as well observed as any
other laws upon the statute books. The
plea fails that they 'don't prohibits" for
it is clear to every one that they are as
well executed as are other penal enact
ments. Some other reason for calling
for a repeal of prohibition must be
assigned, if the public is to Re Influenced
and the struggle for a reversal of this
legislation is to 60 on.-[Toledo Blade.

"Vermont has never furnished a justice

not declined an appointment; and if
called upon she could furnish full bench
that would honor both the State and ma
